Male anti-masturbation device 1880-1920
You try to do a little research for a steampunk tweet and this is what you get.

Steampunk Gonzo?
I’m sure that many erections over time were bent into a downward curve which means that one position I saw in a porn movie a few dozen times once was probably pretty much the norm for awhile.

The original title, “So You Want To Be A Masturbator” didn’t test well with pre-Internet audiences.
I had this book when I was a kid, but my father had added a few homemade pages. The therapist I had when I was four made him take them back out again because of the nightmares I had about burlap sacks being tossed into polluted bodies of water.

mallergy
A term I made up in 2001 to describe a particular ailment of mine.
mallergy: an allergy to malls. Symptoms include hives, raised blood pressure, the urge to punch random strangers and kick small children, and an intense craving for alcohol. Symptoms may be made worse when in close proximity to an Urban Outfitters, Hot Topic or Santa photo shoot. Sudden onset insanity may occur if conditions include the ringing of Salvation Army bells while Do They Know It’s Christmas is being sung by a children’s choir (or even played over the PA system); when this happens, the patient will normally suffer delusions that cause them to think they are re-enacting Dawn of the Dead. Mayhem will ensue.
It’s best for people with any signs of mallergy (aversion to shopping, crowds, rude people, screaming children, teenage girls, parking lots) to simply stay away from malls this time of year. Or any time, really.
I have this year-round.

What the hell?
yhf:
First I miss @jephkelley’s birthday and now I almost missed @vmarinelli’s? This trend must cease. Happy birthday, Victoria. May this one bring joy and much overdue blessings and all things good your way.
Dude seriously what do you have against people who live in Richmond?
my original title was, “what the hell, RVA?!”.

Does anyone know what the hell this means or why I doodled it earlier today? I think he’s saying “sky sharks?”
It makes no sense.
It reminds me of the sky whales from Glen Cook’s Black Company book that had the Plain of Fear or whatever in it. Talking menhirs would come up to the narrator and say, “There are strangers on the Plain, Croaker,” as the sky whales drifted past overhead.
This serves to remind me that I’m probably undercaffeinated today.

Map of the fifty states and their mottos, by Emily Wick. (Via Strange Maps.)
even in state motos, oregon seems to be high.
You can’t read Indiana’s state motto, even on the full-size image. But that’s okay, because it’s intentional — we’re really kind of embarrassed by the “Crossroads of America” thing. Here are some alternate Indiana state motto suggestions I have provided to gubernatorial staff, and also why I’m followed when driving past the mansion on my way to the museum.
- “Your State Has More Teeth”
- “The Cultural Mecca of Bizarro World”
- “Meth! Whoa-oh-oh! Meth!”
- “Y’aint From Around Here, Are You”
- “Where Souls Go To Die”
- “Tolerance and Acceptance” (I had a blood vessel explode in my eye while writing that one.)
